Retained Firefighters are recruited from people living within a set distance from the retained fire station. Recruitment is carried out depending on the needs of the station. Generally most brigades who have retained stations are on the lookout for more personnel particularly those who can give daytime cover during the working week.

Retained firefighters are paid to turn out and get a annual retaining fee, they are not wholetime employees of the brigade and you can't expect to live on the income from retained work.
